The Ministry of Health has initiated a reform in medical equipment distribution, ensuring that devices will be provided directly from the health fund. This will streamline the process and improve access to essential equipment for patients.
A recent report has highlighted inequalities in the health system, revealing that more people are dying in the periphery. This disparity underscores the need for reforms and improvements in healthcare services in these areas.
Prof. Shaul Thazif, Director of the Licensing Division of Medical Professions at the Ministry of Health, has been advocating for changes to regulations that have been pending for 14 years. The current Minister of Health has taken steps to promote the drafting and regulation of these laws, including transitional provisions for those currently working in the healthcare field in Israel.
Discussions at a recent committee meeting addressed amendments to the law regulating the practice of health professions. Transitional provisions will now recognize studies completed in non-academic institutions abroad and ease requirements for exams, practical training, and supervised work for individuals already working in the field in Israel. These changes are aimed at encouraging immigration and absorption in the healthcare sector.
Furthermore, the committee discussed regulations related to exam subjects, supervised work requirements, permits, and the completion of practical training to obtain certification. The implementation of a ban on unauthorized individuals claiming to be chiropractors will be postponed for two years to allow time for organizations to comply with the new regulations.
Dr. Yitzhak Cohen, director of the Israeli Chiropractic Association, emphasized the importance of practical training in completing studies and obtaining certification in the field. The committee chairman, MK Yoni Meshriki (Shas), stressed the need to regulate the practice of additional professions in complementary medicine in Israel to combat the presence of imposters and charlatans in the field.
